When does Starling get back?

[phil77]

You mean if he were to "accidentally" slam his hand in a revolving door, or something similar?

Correct the lockers in the locker room sometimes just get stuck

 

[PoppyHart]

Plus he’s got his Covid year. That’s a perpetual thing, right?

this is the last year with covid kids unless they had additional red shirts in their career

 

[JonB]

Broken hand is 6 to 8 weeks, I think the injury occurred about a month ago, so you’re looking about three weeks. I work w these injuries daily.

Only if you were a freshman in 2020-21.

Not disputing you're background, but he also no longer had a cast on as of Tuesday and he had been ramping up in practice according to reports so I think he's a bit ahead of your timeline.

4-6 weeks was the original timeline.

Is that JJ sitting out behind Bell? So he still is not practicing

That’s not JJ.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

I mean at this point the hope in JJ is not that he comes back and tears it up, it's more that he comes back and we're not shackled to 36+ minutes of Carlos.

I don't like talking about one of our guys that way, but his minutes in the floor don't correlate with winning basketball.

And he's the guy Red gives the most minutes to.

 

[phil77]

That’s not JJ.

I keep looking for him in the practice pictures they are posting but I never see him I thought that might have been him since it was a little blurry

What date did the injury happen?

 

[Cusefan0307]

What date did the injury happen?

33 days ago. The cast has been off since at least Saturday.

 

[cusefan88]

My uneducated guess is he'll be back for BC game on 1/11.

He will be back in 9-23 days

I think it was a crack in the wrist, what do they call those, "Greenstick fractures"? I had 2 of those in my wrist in September. 6 weeks in a cast and 3 more weeks in a brace, and it still felt a bit tender for another week. Of course, I'm 40 years older than him, so he should heal better than me.

JJ is warming up right now, per Matt Park.

Still has a wrap on his wrist.

No idea if he plays.

He’s in uniform and warming up so good chance he plays.

I thought the Georgia Tech home game (1/7) would have been a good result (i.e. thought he would would first play at home). I thought that Louisville or ND at home would have been most likely.
